🎉 JUST SOLD! 🏡

This one feels especially good.

My seller bought this as her very first home, and over the years she made it her own, built memories here, and took great care of it. Now she’s officially closing this chapter and taking the leap toward greener pastures — and I couldn’t be happier for her!

And we went out with a bang:

🏡 Sold in just 13 days
🏆 Set a new sales price record for the neighborhood
🥂 One very happy seller headed toward her next adventure

There’s something pretty special about helping someone sell their first home. It’s not just a house — it represents a whole chapter of life.

Congratulations to my seller, and thank you for trusting me to get you across the finish line. On to what’s next! ❤️

🏡 Do you love historic homes in Kansas City?

Have you ever driven past an old house and wondered:

Who lived there? What happened inside those walls? What stories would that house tell if it could talk?

That’s exactly what I wanted to explore with 415 Benton Boulevard.

This isn’t just a real estate listing — I built a page that digs into the history of the home, the people connected to it, its architecture, and a little piece of Kansas City history along the way.

If you love old houses, KC history, architecture, or just going down a really good historical rabbit hole… you’ll probably enjoy this one. 👀

This is why inspections are so important! Both bathrooms have shower leaks. One is from the floor pan, and the other is from the wall.

Thinking about selling your Kansas City home sometime in the next year or two?

Before you start replacing countertops, painting every room, or tackling a long repair list, it helps to know what will actually matter to buyers.

I’m offering a limited number of personalized Home Equity & Selling Readiness Reviews.

I’ll look at:

🏠 Recent neighborhood sales
📊 A realistic potential selling range
🔨 Repairs or improvements worth considering
🚫 Projects that may not provide a return
📅 A practical preparation timeline

This is especially useful for older and historic homes, where automated estimates often fail to account for renovations, architectural details, and condition.

There is no obligation to sell. It is simply a way to understand your options and make better decisions.

🏡 Big housing news from Washington!

Congress has passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, a major bipartisan package designed to increase housing supply, support home repairs and redevelopment, and expand access to homeownership—including small-dollar mortgages that could benefit buyers in markets like Kansas City.

This will not change home prices or interest rates overnight, but it could create more opportunities for buyers, homeowners, and communities over time.

I’ll continue following the legislation and sharing what it may mean for our local real estate market.

Sometimes you meet some great people at the wrong time! This is one of those cases when I was called to help them move out of the neighborhood. Sorry to see you go, but I wish you both the best in your future endeavors!

Always bittersweet because we get to welcome new people to the neighborhood as well! What a great home and a smooth transaction!

LONG POST - This ended up being one of my most difficult and stressful sales in my entire career! A past client of mine called and said we had two weeks to find a buyer and get us closed.

While we found the perfect buyer immediately, we did not make the closing needed due to some title issues that took a little extra work. With some stressful nights, an extra 1.5 weeks, and both non-profits putting in the work, we finally got the all clear and closed! I couldn’t be more excited for both my sellers and my buyers and we all look forward to seeing the continued growth of not only the property but the new organization that now calls it home.

This was a two acre parcel made up of a historic stone church (1900), the original Jenkins Music family’s home (1910), two multi-family lots (one of which I sold in 2016), a car wash and a children’s playground.

I am so honored to have helped these incredible organizations and I look forward to the continued positive impact they will have in the Historic Northeast.
